So it's dying, not rebooting the machine... ok...  I've changed the subject
title to collect this for future reference.

Do you mean -I or -i?  Because there is no -I in ntop.  (I know, it's in
theOpts in main.c, but that's wrong - and it should be giving a message,
because there's nothing in the case statement to handle it. -I should cause
a "FATAL ERROR" message.)

When it dies, where is it dying?  Try running with -K - under gcc it will
automatically put a backtrace in the log.  It's not perfect, but it usually
gives a begining of a clue.

I did mis-speak previously, however, without -i it looks like ntop will
listen only on one device, whatever the 1st returned by pcap_lookupdev()
is...

Do you have netFlow or sFlow plugins active?  (Those force the interfaces
not to merge)?

Also, check the Admin | Switch NIC page to make sure ntop is/is not merging
the interfaces.


It begins to sound like another case of the merge/indexing problem.  Getting
the address where it's croaking (and the values of key variables) is key...
